Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman

Chapter 137: Chapter 107 Old Ancestor Has an Edict! (Seeking Monthly Pass)_2

Fortunately, after an urgent inspection, the Big Array was safe and sound, and they could only attribute it to the sudden opening of an Evil Qi fissure nearby that was quickly sealed due to the existence of the Chi Yuan Immortal Sect’s Big Array.

“Ha, ha… hahaha.”

In the cave mansion of the Dongli Family’s Old Ancestor, Dongli Qiudao, who had lost his sight, let out a laugh of satisfaction of a Tao Seeker who had seen the truth.

“I saw it!”

“I saw the true Supreme, the truly great existence!”

“What Evil God, what Immortal, they are not worthy to be compared with it.”

“This is truly an existence of a different level from us, an existence worthy of one’s wholehearted worship…”

“The Supreme who holds authority over time and all memory.”

“The great existence that can reproduce all memories!”

“Unable to know your esteemed name, I can only describe the great projection of myself…”

“I am willing to become your most loyal hound and servant from this moment on…”

Dongli Qiudao saw the true origin of the Memory Wand, the Supreme Illusion that held authority over time and all memory, through the impression left by contact with the Memory Wand in the Spirit Summoning Treasure Mirror.

Even if it was just an outline, just an illusion.

The higher dimensional power levels it contained, by virtue of the divination’s unique feedback, still shattered the steadfast Heart Realm of Dongli Qiudao, who had achieved Great Divine Power and forged a Golden Core…

Just like that, it broke apart!

And after being recast from the broken pieces, it gave rise to a fanatical belief and worship of a higher-dimensional existence due to great fear.

Thus,

the branch members of the Dongli Family in the Mysterious Turtle Island seas of the Overseas Islands who had been desperately waiting for an answer,

that armored middle-aged man, after being tormented by anxiety for a long time, finally discovered that ripples had appeared again on the Spirit Summoning Treasure Mirror:

[The Old Ancestor has a command!]

[In our Dongli Clan, no matter the rank, none should offend the honored envoy!]

[If the envoy has any needs, you must cooperate fully to win their favor!]

[Violators will have their parents and children implicated! Family members expelled from the clan, not to return within three generations!]

“Honored envoy?”

The armored middle-aged man widened his eyes, and the young Sword Cultivator who was quietly looking at the mirror was also utterly confused.

They were just trying to confirm whether they had seen a hallucination.

Suddenly, the mirror rippled again.

It was a message from the current Clan Leader of the Dongli Family:

[That was indeed the command of the Old Ancestor, you must not err!]

[Moreover, quickly sketch the memory portrait of the white-haired youth you saw earlier and let me distribute it among our branches!]

[Remember, from today onwards, our Dongli Clan are the most loyal hounds and servants of that honored envoy!]

“Sss!”

“How can this be… what exactly is the origin of that young man!”

“Why did the Old Ancestor go and investigate only to find us a master?”

“The Old Ancestor is a Golden Core Old Ancestor of the Chi Yuan Immortal Sect, how could this happen!”

“Could it be, that white-haired youth is actually a Great Divine Power Cultivator capable of making even the Old Ancestor and the Chi Yuan Immortal Sect behind him submit!”

The armored middle-aged man gasped in shock.

The young Sword Cultivator was even more frightened, sweating profusely with trembling legs.

Fortunately, fortunately his father was cautious enough not to offend the other party directly.

Otherwise… not only would their clan be annihilated,

but the entire Dongli Family would likely plummet because of offending such a Great Divine Power Cultivator!

Only, what sin had their branch committed to encounter an event that not even immortal cultivation novels dared to write, only theorized in miths to possibly happen!

Su Ping rode the Big Black Fish back to the small coastal town.

He threw the Big Black Fish back into the Pot Cave Heaven.

Su Ping was unaware that due to the Memory Wand, he had unwittingly gained a group of loyal dogs behind him.

Returning to land, he put on a mask to revert to his original form, contained the aura of a great cultivator with his Divine Sense, and went to a town tavern to taste the seafood.

Then he listened to the new stories told by the storytellers.

As branches of the Immortal Cultivation Families continued to migrate to the coast,

these storytellers’ new stories included more content about slaughtering Sea Demons.

Especially with the appearance of those massive tower ships.

It was heard that more and more sea beasts, ten to twenty meters in length, also became targets for hunters.

Even the ports had begun organizing fleets in an attempt to fish in the open sea.

Not just because the open sea yielded more fish and more valuable sea beasts.

Su Ping had also heard rumors being intentionally spread in the streets and alleys.

Some returning fishermen who had survived disasters claimed that far beyond the Overseas Islands, there existed Overseas Immortal Islands.

These islands were bathed in colorful dawn and dusk lights, where Spiritual Beasts soared and frolicked.

Of course, to ordinary people, these islands were naturally referred to as Immortal Islands.

But in the eyes of cultivators, these Immortal Islands were clearly islands possessing Spirit Veins!

Islands with Spirit Veins were indeed places where branches of Immortal Cultivation Families should stay.

Even if the quality was a bit lower, they were incomparable to the impoverished Overseas Islands!

Su Ping estimated that even if cultivator families found the rumors not very credible,

they ultimately couldn’t be one hundred percent certain it was impossible.

Thus, these families would likely send ships to join the deep-sea fleet, and then this deep-sea expedition became a certain trend.

It’s unknown if someone really was scheming something behind this or not.

Or simply unwilling to spend their lives on the Overseas Islands, hoping to gamble while they still had the resources!

After indulging in local snacks and satisfying his cravings, Su Ping left the port town and even visited Golden Sword City along the way.

Su Ping saw this once-thriving city, now scarred by a vicious battle between cultivators, only partially restored to life even now.

However, it seemed that the city’s landmark, a giant sword, was not much affected and still silently stood in its place.

Full of pity, Su Ping kindly located and borrowed the remaining Sealing Magic Artifacts from the local great families who held them.

After all, these Sealing Magic Artifacts had no set date for when their purification would be completed here.

Now, they simply couldn’t spare the manpower to build temples and hold Magic Meetings, nor have people pray day and night.

The Great Compassionate One indeed visited, quickly leaving after confirming there were no Evil Spirits following the purification of the lost souls.

Ordinary people, after all, needed to rely on themselves to recuperate and revive.

In that case, they might as well let Su Ping use them first.

Since it’s all for purifying Evil Spirits and protecting the great cause of the Immortal Cultivation World.

Giving them to Su Ping would also expedite the purification process of the Sealing Magic Artifacts!

Su Ping also took a trip to Cloud Mountain Workshop, exchanged some top-grade pills, bought some pills, and some materials.

This time at sea, sensing some abnormalities and noticing the Dongli Family’s clear movements toward Mysterious Turtle Island, Su Ping planned to stay in Golden Sparrow City and on Water Blue Star fishing for the next few weeks. Once he had accumulated enough Merit, achieved Divine Skills, and began his Foundation Establishment, he would go fishing on Mysterious Turtle Island.

It seemed the Dongli Family, powerful as they were, should be able to offer at least that much face to someone at the Foundation Establishment stage.

After all, he wasn’t going there to demand Spirit Stones, just to fish and comprehend the universe.

At worst, he could also become a VIP member of the Dongli Family.

…

Pot Cave Heaven.

Su Ping and the Exorcism Youth Yun Kong finished a sparring session that was skin-deep with every move.

This time, relying on greatly enhanced Divine Sense and overall improved physical condition, Su Ping gained the upper hand for the first time.

Emboldened, Su Ping began considering next time to bring both White Crane Child and Yun Kong to spar with him.

After resting for a while, he fed Big Black Fish a false Dragon Blood Chi Wen, watching as it started to work hard at digesting the false Dragon Blood.

Su Ping’s attention turned to Shanawati, who was earnestly learning talisman painting under the big locust tree at the Bone Burying Ground, his eyes following her movement.

This intelligent yet young girl was seamlessly finishing a Gathering Qi Talisman>.

This was one of the simplest first-tier talismans.

But even simple, it still belonged to the first-tier talismans!

Shanawati being able to draw such a talisman already qualified her as an official Talisman Master in the Immortal Cultivation World, able to open her own business and earn Spirit Stones!

“Truly worthy of being a Blood Talisman Spirit Body, a Talisman Path genius!”

“It’s only been a few days, and she feels like she’s catching up to my progress in the Talisman Path!”

“Hm? Has she already discovered how to use her special physique’s little tricks?”

Su Ping observed Shanawati puncturing her index finger with a needle and dripping a drop of blood into the talisman paper while drawing a new talisman.

Then, seamlessly done!

A small Amulet that even Su Ping hadn’t mastered was also successfully drawn by Shanawati!
